THE INFLUENCE OF THE TYPE OF STARTER CULTURE ON RIPENING PROCESSES, PHYSICO-CHEMICAL AND SENSORIC CHARACTERISTICS OF WHITE CHEESE
Traditional starters are used for different types of cheese, a mixed associations of microorganisms. The mixed starters contain more species and strains of bacteria isolated from traditional starters. Depending on the type of cheese are produced, they prevail mesophilous bacteria: Leuconostoc lactis ssp lactis and Leuconostoc lactis ssp cremoris, s...

SYSTEMS USING ENERGY SOLAR RADIATION
Energy is now one of the most important components of development and functioning of the economy and society in general. The development of civilization use different energy sources – fossil fuels and other energy sources like wind and water that are used to drive windmills, water mills and boats. Many countries begin the rationalization of e...

THE EFFECT OF ADDITIVES ON α-Al2O3 OCCURRENCE KINETICS DURING HEATING OF INDUSTRIAL ALUMINUM HYDROXIDE
This paper presents the results of the impact of basic additives in the process of heating (calcinations) of industrial aluminum hydroxide and the formation of the final stable phase α- Al2O3. The influence of additives have been focused on the result of the impact, ie. on the kinetics of crystallization of α-Al2O3, and the comparative ...

PHOTOCHEMICAL ACTIVATION OF AIR POLLUTANTS, RELATED TO THE PRESERVATION OF CULTURAL HERITAGE
It is well known that the exposition to air and weather markedly enhances derogation of all artifacts. In this report, the contribution of light (particularly sunlight) to marked speed-up of the oxidation and other changes by exposition to atmosphere will be analyzed. Five major mechanisms of the effect of insolation can be identified: 1. First is ...

SYNTHESIS AND STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF A Cu(II) COMPLEX WITH PYRIDOXAL S-METHYLISOTHIOSEMICARBAZONE (PLITSC) LIGAND
Reaction between a warm water mixture of pyridoxal hydrochloride (PL.HCl), and Smethyilisothiosemicarbazidehydroiodide (SMeTSC.HI) in the presence of Na2CO3 .10 H O, we got pyridoxal S-methylisothiosemicarbazone (PLITSC; H2L). Ligand with appropriate Cu salt is coordinated, to give next complex: dark-brown, penta coordinated, square-pyrami...

INFLUENCE OF APPLYING THE DIFFERENT ACIDS FOR ADJUSTING THE DYEBATH pH IN THE PROCESS OF DYEING THE POLYESTER KNITWEAR WITH DISPERSE YELLOW 3
The influence of using formic, oxalic, citric and tartaric acid for adjusting the dyebath pH upon the dyeability of polyester knitwear dyed with Disperse Yellow 3 was investigated. CIELAB coordinates of the knitwear samples dyed with the addition of tested acids were assessed and compared to those dyed with the addition of acetic acid. The differen...

FORMATION OF CARCINOGENIC SUBSTANCES DURING HEATING OF FOODS
Heating of foods induces chemical reaction pathways that are not only leading to desired compounds (e.g. aroma and taste active) but also to degradation products that can pose a cancer risk. Especially the Maillard reaction is known for the formation of carcinogenic compounds in some instances. Recently, it was described that the uptake of oxid...

WHAT DETERMINES THE WATER QUALITY
In natural waters as a highly complex environment, a different matter, regardless of whether they are natural water ingredients or substances which mature in water by man activity, are subject to one or several different processes. Physical, chemical or biochemical processes are determining finding shapes, behavior and fate of substances in the aqu...

HIGH-ENERGY NANOCRYSTALLINE Nd-Fe-B MAGNETIC MATERIALS – SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION, APPLICATION
One of the most widely used high-energy nanocrystalline permanent magnetic materials are Nd-Fe-B alloys. Current R&D of Nd-Fe-B magnets is focused on three major topics: increase of magnetic energy, improvement of corrosion resistance and reduction of rare-earth content as a way of decreasing prices of final magnetic material with still signifi...
